An Indian restaurant in Frisco, Texas, was forced to shut down after a routine health inspection by officials found moldy food in the kitchen, Frisco Today reported. The inspections took place between March 15-28 and the officials said they will re-inspect Chalo India, the Indian restaurant in question, to determine whether it would be allowed to reopen. Another local eatery, Sweet Rice, was given a warning as gnats were found in a warewashing area, the report said.
Frisco health inspections function on a demerit system: A score of 0 is considered perfect, and when the score exceeds 30, the establishment fails. At that time, an inspector may choose to close the business at their discretion. When the total exceeds 30, the food establishment fails. At that time, the health inspector may close a food establishment at their discretion. This decision is based on the nature of the violations, the food establishment's history of compliance, and other risk factors.
